'Scream 7' Officially Adds 'Happy Death Day's Christopher Landon to Direct

 ABOUT POST 

Following on from today's earlier news that Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, the team known as Radio Silence, would be stepping away from the Scream franchise, it's now been confirmed that Christopher Landon will replace the duo in overseeing the next installment, Scream VII, which is once again being produced by the Spyglass Media Group.

The cast has openly expressed their interest in returning (after the SAG-AFTRA strike is resolved, of course), and the film's incredible box-office success practically guarantees its eventual production. However, due to the achievements of Radio Silence, they are now venturing into new projects, which unfortunately means they might not be involved in future Scream endeavors, much to the disappointment of Scream fans. In March, Scream VI made its debut and shattered franchise records, raking in a remarkable $168 million at the global box office. The previous installment had garnered $137.7 million in global box office earnings.
